Her Son Slept All Day – Mom Believes Digging In Early Spared Him Losing His Sight
“I knew something was off… He went from so much energy and life in him to just really a lot more sleeping… Dr. B didn’t just brush me off. He dug deep to find it, found the source, and we changed the trajectory of his life.”
When a 12-year-old boy suddenly becomes overwhelmingly lethargic, it is easy to write it off as just normal teenage hormonal changes or growing pains. However, mother’s intuition often knows when a symptom points to something much deeper.
In this episode of The Deeper Healing Podcast, host Danielle Howley sits down with Jennifer, a mother who trusted her intuition when her son, Ham, experienced a dramatic drop in his energy. Jennifer shares how a comprehensive functional blood panel at Deeper Healing—which tested far beyond standard pediatric markers—revealed that Ham’s prolactin levels were completely off the charts. This led to the unexpected discovery of a macro prolactinoma, a large tumor pressing against his pituitary gland and optic nerve.
Jennifer details their stressful journey navigating conventional medicine, including a two-year stall with standard medications and the terrifying prospect of high-risk brain surgery. She then shares the turning point in Ham’s recovery experience: returning to Dr. Michael Bauerschmidt for a tailored functional approach using IV Curcumin, high-dose Vitamin C, and intranasal laser activation. Today, Ham is a thriving 18-year-old college golfer. This episode explores the life-saving potential of thorough diagnostic testing, the power of patient advocacy, and why no parent should ignore their intuition.
